Emerging Artist Residency Program.
Split-Screen
Breaking emerging artists into the scene.
SplitScreen is a residency program that ran for two seasons and embodied our commitment to nurturing emerging artists and their artistic journeys. This program was designed to center around providing Vancouver-based youth artists with their first professional presentation. We firmly believe in breaking down barriers to entry into the arts, which is why we offered free space, mentorship, and community while empowering artists to explore their creativity without financial constraints.

Radical System Art.
International touring and creative collaboration.
As a dancer for Shay Kuebler Radical System Art dance company for 5 years, I toured internationally with two shows called "Telemetry" and "Epilogos". The innovative, technology-heavy productions pushed the boundaries of traditional performance art, challenging me to explore new realms of movement and expression. Creative collaboration with the choreographer, performance artists, and the incredibly talented sound production team, fostered an environment of boundless experimentation and artistic growth.

Solo Work
Explorations into glitch film physicality and site-specific performance.
all things wet are dangerous (ATWAD) is a solo, site-specific, live performance installation in collaboration with selected film works of Martin Arnold.
This research is a reinterpretation and performance of Martin Arnold’s work, Passage a’lact. This film takes a twenty second family breakfast scene from the 1950’s classic To Kill a Mockingbird and ruthlessly scrubs through the content. Arnold keeps the original sound attached to the movement and extends this short clip from To Kill a Mocking Bird (TKMB) into a twelve minute film, now described as a “surrealist nightmare.” His formalist approach tothe repetition of small movements progressing through a typical morning score, such as eating breakfast, quickly becomes layered with social innuendo.
break point, commissioned video work, was created as an on-screen representation of similar themes to ATWAD.
